ENV101 Introduction to Product Environmental Compliance

Description

You receive requests for product environmental compliance from third parties (customers, governmental agencies, etc.). Your suppliers also provide certificates, show logos, and various acronyms everywhere on their websites…The bottom line is: do the products you design, manufacture, sell, distribute, or import comply with every applicable legal obligation?

This quest may be a little daunting or tedious to address. Do all of these requirements actually apply to your products? How to tackle them?

We offer this introductory course to help you navigate through these requests, and have a better understanding of what is at stake.

This won’t be an exhaustive presentation of all possible product environmental requirements. They are so many! However, the main categories and requirements, especially in the electronics industry, will be presented.

Pre-requisite: No specific background is required here.

Testing and certification: One short quiz with a 80% passing. Certification on completion to the student upon successful completion.
